Questions about the waitlist?

<p>Ok so I am on the waitlist for 3 top 20 schools.... So how do waitlists work? If I get called back by (lets say 2 ) in the same week do I have to go to both? Or can I decline? What if one calls me back, I pay and another calls me back (I wont go to them im just wondering because thats not fair if people can do that). Thanks! I am really hoping I get a call from one of them the first week of May! If not I'll be headed to a small private in state school! Which I dont mind either way!</p>

<p>If you are offered a place off the waitlist, you are not obligated to take it. You can, however, if you wish. If you do, you will forfeit any deposit you made to another school.</p>

<p>Good luck.</p>

<p>Ok thank you! So its like RD applicants when they submit their May 1st deposit, thanks! Good to know its not binding! My chances are prob 10% haha this year waitlists are huge!</p>
